Guide books don’t tell you how informative and well presented this historic site is. Thought we would spend half an hour or so but stayed 4 hours! And it was free. This gem should be well supported

The new visitor and interpretive centre adds a lot to the historic site. As of June the museum is free and definitely worth seeing. Do check the website before going as sometimes the visitor centre is closed for events, or the outdoor fort has festivals or other events going on.

Interesting historical site, glad they've preserved some original buildings! Be sure to visit the small visitor center as well. I spent about 2hrs here as I read most of the exhibits fully. Can't beat a museum site with free admission :)
